Notes: 1. Full-time equivalent figures are rounded to the nearest whole number. In 2002 Gloucestershire Royal NHS trust and East Gloucestershire trusts merged to form Gloucestershire hospitals NHS foundation trust. 2. Figures prior to 2002 are therefore listed as a combination of the two former organisations. Source: Information Centre for health and social care Non-Medical Workforce Census |
